Dust by Screaming Trees
Aug 13 2025

Unknown album for me, but it was a good listen. No real outstanding tracks, but I liked the overall feel of the album. Not sure if I will go back to it.

Endtroducing..... by DJ Shadow
Aug 14 2025

Instrumentals that keep you engaged and keep suprising. Organ Doner as a stand-out track, among others. Good album, definitely coming back to it.

My Generation by The Who
Aug 15 2025

Good early rock album, with some nice blues influences. Besides the major hit, I don't think I'll come back to this album.

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Aug 18 2025

Outstanding first song, the other ones are nice.

In Utero by Nirvana
Aug 21 2025

What a voice. Very good album, I like the more mature sound.

On The Beach by Neil Young
Aug 25 2025

Nice album, not the best Neil Young I have heard

Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
Aug 26 2025

Beautiful album with a lot of outstanding songs. For me, one of the most recognizable voices.

Duck Rock by Malcolm McLaren
Aug 27 2025

Experimental and fun listen. Nice to know where the Slim Shady line came from, but does not have a lot of replay value.

Safe As Milk by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Aug 28 2025
British Steel by Judas Priest
Aug 29 2025

Didn't know this band, but there sure are some metal anthems on this album!

Either Or by Elliott Smith
Sep 01 2025

Good songwriting and nice songs. No real outliers for me.

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
Sep 02 2025

I knew the hits, but songs like Voodoo Chile are just wow. Listening to this album in full made me appreciatie him much more.

Beyond Skin by Nitin Sawhney
Sep 17 2025

Suprising listening, I liked the different influences of western and eastern music styles and the up tempo drums in some of the songs. As a whole, not I project I will return to.

Yeezus by Kanye West
Sep 19 2025

Had this album on repeat when it was released. Over 10 years later and I put it on repeat again. The production on this album is so diverse and fresh, always gets me hyped. For me not the best Kanye album (I like the old kanye...). But still nothing less than a full hit: 5/5.

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Sep 22 2025

A lot of energy in the beginning, which was fun. But then it is a bit more nice and mellow, with the bangers making it a very good ending.

Tapestry by Carole King
Sep 23 2025

Nice songs, nice album. Could listen to this any day. Only a little more variation would be better

Sulk by The Associates
Sep 24 2025

Awesome instrumentals: great baselines, synths and some physicadellic touches to make it different. I do sometimes wish that this was a instrumental album, the vocals were a bit to much at sometimes.

American Beauty by Grateful Dead
Sep 25 2025

Chill and nice album. You can listen to it five times in a row with realising it, no real outstanding lyrics or instrumentals, but good album overall.

Sep 29 2025

The voice, guitar and harmonica just match. Great songs from a great artist. Although I prefer later works for more diversity.

Kings Of The Wild Frontier by Adam & The Ants
Oct 01 2025

New wave!!! Cool sound overall in the album, not a lot of replay value for me. But keep these sounds coming!

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Oct 02 2025

No idea what it is about, but awesome sounds. Want to learn more about A História De Jorge.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Oct 03 2025

Fleetwood Mac gotta be good. Tried not let Sara en Tusk lead my review, and they didn’t.. What makes you thinks you're the one! I know I am not Wrong! Bangers.

Horses by Patti Smith
Oct 06 2025

I was suprised by Patti. Very intense songs, but some worked very well. Favorites are Gloria: and Horses:

Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys
Oct 07 2025

Got more rhymes than Jamaica got mango's! Sample masterclass with Beastie Boys synergie.

More Specials by The Specials
Oct 08 2025

Lots of different and fun sounds, but not my thing.

Tonight's The Night by Neil Young
Oct 09 2025

First Neil Young album in the list, probably not the last. You can hate it or love it, but I love it. Keep them coming!

Calenture by The Triffids
Oct 10 2025

Loved the beginning tracks of the album, with A Trick Of The Light as a highlight. Left the door open, closed mine for this album tho. Sounds like a church song? Still some nice mellow songs later in the album.

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
Oct 14 2025

Me and Juliooooooo, absolute banger. A few more highlights during the album, it loses my interest a bit in the end.

Melody A.M. by Röyksopp
Oct 15 2025

Poor leno..... What a jam, love those cowbells. This album has a lot of different sounds, but all very relaxed. Melody A.M. is the perfect name.

Oedipus Schmoedipus by Barry Adamson
Oct 16 2025

Cool concept, impossible to listen to. Liked some of the trumpet songs tho.

Rum Sodomy & The Lash by The Pogues
Oct 17 2025

Listened to a 1hour+ Irish Punk album without it getting anoying. That's a win for the Pogues, but they didn't win me over.

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Oct 20 2025

Love how the "later Stevie sound" kicks in in this album. With Superstition as absolute banger. the other songs did not really grab me.

Live And Dangerous by Thin Lizzy
Oct 21 2025

Sounds amazing for a live album! Good songs with a nice flow.

Innervisions by Stevie Wonder
Oct 22 2025

Less hits, but a very well constructed album. Can listen to it over and over again.

Oct 24 2025

Besides Freedom! there are lots of other highlights on this album. Not just slow songs, they got some funk. Highlights are Waiting for that day & Heal the pain. 5/5

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Oct 27 2025

What a groove. Besides the classics That Lady and Summer Breeze, each track had their own feel and addition to this album.

Protection by Massive Attack
Oct 29 2025

Yes Massive Attack! Smooth and intreging, dark and fun. Protection is one of my favorite Massive Attack songs. The whole album is a great vibe.

The Age Of The Understatement by The Last Shadow Puppets
Oct 30 2025

Feels like film music, but then in an indie style. Cool, but not a lot of replay value for me.

Bad by Michael Jackson
Nov 04 2025

Full of hits, the three tracks that I didn't know also smash. Easy 5/5

Kenya by Machito
Nov 05 2025

This album gives me positive vibes and takes jazz to another world. Added this to my library

Sail Away by Randy Newman
Nov 06 2025

Very relaxed listen, but gets anoyning after a 2nd or 3rd listen.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Nov 10 2025

Only knew everyday people from this album and mostly the funky songs of Sly. This album suprised me, this band has a lot more to offer!

The Band by The Band
Nov 11 2025

Probably a very influential album, but not for me. Liked the Old Dixie song tho.

Let Love Rule by Lenny Kravitz
Nov 12 2025

I like the Lenny Kraviz sound, this album did not really grab me tho.

Butterfly by Mariah Carey
Nov 13 2025

Smooth songs. Fun album and the mobb deep sample was unexpected, but cool. Didn't save anything to my library tho.

Maverick A Strike by Finley Quaye
Dec 05 2025

Fun album, with reaggae influences. Some highlights are Even After All, Your Love Gets Sweeter, Ride On and Turn The People on. At the end of the album it gets a bit boring.

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
Dec 08 2025

Air guitar guaranteed. Run to the Hills and Invaders are the highlights for me.

Highway to Hell by AC/DC
Dec 09 2025

Iconic band, with an iconic voice. Highlights: Highway to hell & Shot Down in Flames.

Fishscale by Ghostface Killah
Dec 10 2025

The Ghostface Killahhhhhhhhhhh. Did not expect to find this album on the list, but production on this is awesome.

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
Dec 12 2025

The intro of the title song starts a groove that doesn't stop, just an awesome album.

Parallel Lines by Blondie
Dec 15 2025

One way or another and heart of glass (especially) are major hits. The rest of the album was a fun listen as well, where picture this was my favorite. Saved some songs and going to spin it again.

Red Headed Stranger by Willie Nelson
Dec 16 2025

Willie Nelson, I can imagine why people like this. But not for me.

Lam Toro by Baaba Maal
Dec 17 2025

Supporter of world music on this list, but this did not do it for me. Olel had some fun vibes tho.

Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
Dec 18 2025

This album was quite a Journey. It started with a banger, after that there was a lot of "what am I listening to". Mona and Who Do You Love are definitely the highlights.

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Dec 19 2025

Cool simplistic rock that catches your ear. There is definitely more to the band than just 7 nation army. Highlights Hotel Yorba and Fell In Love With a Girl.

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Dec 23 2025

Black Sabbath has an awesome and mysterious sound. N.I.B. is my favorite of the album, great guitar riff and solo.

Murder Ballads by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Dec 24 2025

Never knew such an album/genre existed. Interesting, but not my thing. Stagger lee was fun and I liked the Nick Cave Kylie Minogue combination.

Closer by Joy Division
Dec 25 2025

I love the sound of Joy Division, especially the drums. I did not fully listen to this album before, but this also full of bangers.

Smash by The Offspring
Dec 29 2025

Self Esteem is an easy a favorite on this album. That far in the album some breath was much needed. Didn't save any other songs to the collection, but it was a fun listen.

Tidal by Fiona Apple
Dec 30 2025

Never heard of her, but it is a lovely album. Shadowboxer is my favorite, also like The Child is Gone.

Fifth Dimension by The Byrds
Dec 31 2025

Three fun opening songs and i like the folk sound. The album just didn't stick with me tho.

Want Two by Rufus Wainwright
Jan 16 2026

Very theatrical. Not my thing.

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
Jan 20 2026

Didn't knew I knew this. Some 90s bangers on this album and I like the vibe of the album. Especially the opening song and the first part of the album, the way of signing gets a bit anoying at the end/repeated listens.

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Jan 21 2026

Best hiphop album? Probably not. But it's Snoop doggy dogg!

That's The Way Of The World by Earth, Wind & Fire
Jan 22 2026

8 songs of pure joy, with Shining star being my favorite. Not their best album, but very good.

Madman Across The Water by Elton John
Jan 23 2026

First two songs hit hard, after that not much that caught my attention.

In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
Jan 26 2026

Cool sound journey and important for Miles' future sounds.

Jan 27 2026

Big hits on a album with a new approach to pop. Great listen!

Brothers by The Black Keys
Jan 28 2026

Great flow through the entire album, gave it multiple listens. No real track stood out tho, so a solid 4.

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Jan 29 2026

With the name T. Rex and the genre Glam rock, I didn't expect much. But it was a fun listnen with Get It On and Hot Love as my favorites.

Jan 30 2026

First Album is way better than I thought it would be. No songs saved to my library tho, solid 3.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Feb 02 2026

Iconic voice and nice/pleasant songs to listen to. Got to listen to more Sinatra.

Illmatic by Nas
Feb 03 2026

For me a legendary album. Easy 5/5

Os Mutantes by Os Mutantes
Feb 04 2026

Totally new for me. Fun and suprising listen, saved some songs.

Like A Prayer by Madonna
Feb 05 2026

Like A Prayer is a total banger ofc, but further not a lot of memorable songs. A lot sounded the same.

Halcyon Digest by Deerhunter
Feb 06 2026

Suprising listening! Loved the ambiance throughout the album and saved a few songs to my library.

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Feb 09 2026

Head will roll will forever be a banger, A-Trax remix or not. Didn't know any other songs, but liked most of them. The singing gets a bit anoying after a while.

Life's Too Good by The Sugarcubes
Feb 11 2026

This album is quite a trip, every song gave a different vibe. But much enjoyed! Saved one song, might come back to this album.

The Scream by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Feb 12 2026

Awesome debut album, still sound innovative today. Curious about all the other stuff they made.

Gasoline Alley by Rod Stewart
Feb 13 2026

Album started good with It's All Over Now, but not a lot happened after that. Not coming back to the rest of this album.

Transformer by Lou Reed
Feb 16 2026

I guess I wasn't really in the mood for these slow songs. Besides Walk on the wild side (bangerrr), it didn't do much for me.

In Rainbows by Radiohead
Mar 27 2026

Awesome album. Keep on finding new things to love on this album.

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Mar 30 2026

Some nice guitar work and I like the CCR vocals, but this album doesn't really do a lot for me.

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Mar 31 2026

This is a difficult one to rate for me. Very big cultural impact, great voice, but I won't put the album on again very soon.

Damaged by Black Flag
Apr 03 2026

I guess this would be awesome live.. I enjoyed the TV Party song tho.

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Jun 10 2026

Classic songs. Discovered I Just Wasn't Made For These Times for the first time -> describes exactly how I feel at times.

Marquee Moon by Television
Jun 16 2026

Album started of sounding fresh, at the end I was a little bit oversaturated with the sound tho.

I See You by The xx
Jun 17 2026

Easy to listen to, with some songs grabbing your attention like Hold On. But mostly it didn't grab me.

Blackstar by David Bowie
Jun 18 2026

Lazarus is awesome, other songs don't hit as hard. I like the jazz musicans on this album and knowing the background of the recordings... you can't go lower than a 4.

La Revancha Del Tango by Gotan Project
Jun 19 2026

Some nice grooves on this album, but nothing really grabbed my attention. Fun experiment, not a lot of replay value.

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Jul 24 2026

Very soft, chill and somber songs. This sound probably influenced a whole generation of singers. Need to be in the mood for this, but the album grew on me.

Joan Armatrading by Joan Armatrading
Jul 27 2026

Nice and relaxed songs. Saved one song.

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Jul 28 2026

Cool album with some nice alternative rock songs. Saved one, but won't be coming back very soon.

A Walk Across The Rooftops by The Blue Nile
Jul 29 2026

Tinseltown, what a name... Love the long and climaxing songs. The singing could be better, but I like the vibe.

Is This It by The Strokes
Jul 30 2026

Some very good songs on here and I like the overall sound of the album. Just a bit too much of the same when you get closer to the end.

Beauty And The Beat by The Go-Go's
Jul 31 2026

Fun songs! But not a lot of replay value for me and did not save one song.

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
Aug 03 2026

This is a Vibe! Like the cover art as well. It's an easy listen, but does contain a lot if you pay close attention. Saved one song, not a lot of reply value.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Aug 04 2026

First two songs were amazing, the last two didn't catch my attention that much. As a artist and pioneer, definitely 5. For this specific album: 4.

Third by Portishead
Aug 05 2026

Beth Gibbons voice remains very impressive. Besides the Rip I didn't know this album, but I like the new direction they went on.

If You're Feeling Sinister by Belle & Sebastian
Aug 06 2026

Didn't know the band, but I did not like the song about the boy with the arab strap. But this album made me like the band! Listened to it 2 times and saved 4 songs. I don't want to be biased, but i gave Fela Kuti 4 stars yesterday... so this couldn't be more.

Gris Gris by Dr. John
Aug 07 2026

Very weird album, but fun. I liked the intro track, but 33 minutes still ended up to be to much weirdness. No replay value.

The White Album by Beatles
Aug 10 2026

Great songs on this album, I like this era of the Beatles. Cool back story. Don't like 30-song long albums, and this is no exclusion.

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Aug 11 2026

Childhood memory and did NOT disappoint after listening. Catchy songs that catch you in the feels. Legend.

Odessa by Bee Gees
Aug 12 2026

I knew the Bee Gees made music before their Disco songs, but I didn't know it was this hard to get through. Sounded like a bad musical. Also what's with the goat imitations?
